 Verse:
          D                         A                   
 Somebody told her that there was a place like heaven=20
 Bm                    G                  
 Across the water on a seven-fortyseven=20
 D                 Bm    A      D     Bm A 
 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.
 D                            A                
 And pretty soon she's really got the notion=20
    Bm                    G                
 Of flying out across the big blue ocean=20

 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.

 F#               Bm          
 Talk is cheap on satellite=20
     G            Em C     
 But all I get is static=20
 F#   Bm      F#        Bm     
 Information, I'm still here=20

 Re-dial on automatic.
 
 Chorus:=20

 Calling America (can't get a message through)=20

 Calling America (she left a number for me)=20

 Calling America.
 
 Verse:
 But I'm just talking to a satellite=20
 Twenty thousand miles up in the sky each night=20
 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.
 All I had to do was pick up the phone=20
 I'm out in space, trying to talk to someone=20
 D                 Bm    A      D   (D-C#m) 
 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.
 
 Pre-Chorus:
 She left a number I could call=20
 But no one's there, no one at all=20
 There must be something going wrong=20
 That number just rings on and on.
 
 Chorus:=20
 Calling America (can't get a message through)=20
 Calling America (that's what she said to do)=20
 Calling America (that's where she has to be)=20
 Calling America (she left a number for me)=20
 Calling America.
